Former Ssangbangwool Group Chairman Kim Seong-tae, who was arrested after escaping overseas for eight months and was arrested on six charges, including group embezzlement and breach of trust, was arrested.
The Suwon District Court arrested former chairman Kim, saying that the crime charges were clarified and there was concern about the destruction of evidence and escape.
An arrest warrant was also issued for the same reason for Yang Seon-gil, the current chairman of Ssangbangwool Group, who was also requested for an arrest warrant.
Former Chairman Kim and Chairman Yang did not attend the interrogation of the suspect before the arrest, which was scheduled yesterday, in the sense of diligently participating in the investigation and reflecting.
The prosecution also did not appear, so the court reviewed only the relevant records without interrogation to determine whether to issue an arrest warrant.
Prosecutors who have secured former Chairman Kim's recruits can investigate former Chairman Kim in a state of detention for up to 20 days before handing him over to trial.
Prosecutors continued to investigate not only allegations such as group embezzlement and breach of trust, violation of the Capital Markets Act, violation of the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act, bribery, and teacher destruction of evidence, which have already been listed in the arrest warrant charges, but also the controversial allegation of payment of attorney fees by Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung. I am planning to go out.
